Elkhart Lead Free

The City of Elkhart, Indiana, is committed to creating safer, healthier homes for all residents. Through actively pursuing federal resources—such as HUD’s Lead Hazard Reduction Capacity Building Grant —the City works to reduce lead paint hazards in older housing and protect children from the dangers of lead exposure.

The Elkhart Lead Free program builds on this mission by focusing on comprehensive training, targeted hazard control (including dust, paint, and soil), and strong community partnerships. Together, we are making meaningful progress toward ensuring every family in Elkhart can live in a healthy, lead-safe home.
